Beauty Is desired and admired by all. Among the things which may best be done to enhance personal beauty is the daily use of Aver’s Hair Vigor. No matter what the color of the hair, this prepa- ration gives it a lus- tre and pliancy that adds greatly to its charm. Should the hair be thin, harsh, dry, or turning gray, Ayer’s Hair Vigor will restore the color, bring out a new growth, and render the old soft and shiny. For keeping the scalp clean, cool, and healthy, there is no better preparation in the market. **T am free to confess that a trial of Ayer’s Hair Vigor has convinced me that it is a genuine article. Its nse has not only caused the hair of my wife and daughter to be Abundant and Glossy, but it has given my rather stunted mus- tache a respectable length and appear. ance.”’—R. Britton, Oakland, Ohio. “My hair was coming out (without any assistance from my wife, either) [ tried Ayer’s Hair Vigor, using only one bottle, and I now have as fine a head of hair as any one could wish for.” --R. T. Schmittou, Dickson, Tenn. **T have used Aver’s Hair Vizorin my family for a number of years, and re- gard it as the best hair preparation I know of. It keeps the scalp ciean, the hair soft and lively, and preserves the original color. My wife nas usec it for @ long time with most satisfactory re- sults.’ — Benjamin M. Johnson, M.

SENATOR PROWSE PREDICTS AN OVERWHELM- ING VICTORY FOR THE M’LEOD-FERGUSON GOVERNMENT—THE CROPS AND stock. (Staff Corresyondence Halifax Herald ) Mippoite Srewiacke, January 11.—On the train from Pictou to-day I fell in with ‘Senator Prowse, who with Senators Mont- 'zomery and Haythorne, andS F. Perry, M. P., were en route for Otiawa. This will be the first session for Mr. Prowse, Carvell, appointed Lieutenant Governor. ity and political service and business suc- cuss, Mr. Prowse has fairly won the honor. | A native of Devonshire, England, thirty Sine_e Copies Two Cents VOL, 25.-NO. 41 Address. _ On the eve of his departure from the Is- land, the members of True Brothers Lodge, No. 8, A. F. & A. M., met at the house of ‘Bro. Wesley Myers and presented Bro. ‘Percy H Palmer with the following fare- ‘well address: | Dear Brotuir,—It is with feelings of deep regret that we learnjof your intended departure ‘from our midst. Though a junior member of (the fra‘e nity, yet we teel we are losing in /you a tive and mueh valued brother. |" You have always evinced a devoted attach ment to the Brotherhood, asis evidenced by By integrity, abil- your regular attendance on ail stated meetings, not having been absent on one occasion since your initiation, Connected by business, ties as you have been, to a considerable extent for years ago he settled in Murray Harbor, P. | the past few years with the farming commun- E. Isiand, and engaged in the fisheries, | general merchandise and stock raising. | Enterprise, perseverance and industry en- abled him to accumulate a fortune He re- cently handed his business over to his two sons, who are prosecuting it with the same success that attended their father. many years Mr. Prowse represented his district in the Legisiature and the Island Government and would doubtless have | not accepted the higher responsibilities and honors of a seat in the Canadian Sera e where he will continue to be a faithful, shrewd and conscientious member of the liberal wing of the Liberal-Conservative party. Senator Montgomery, though 82, years of age, and who lony ago celebrated | the jubilee of his public life, looks as vigor- ous as a young man of 60, and from appear- auces, promises to become a nonogenarian member of the senate. Speaking to Mr. Prowse of local politics, I asked him why the legislature had been dissulved a year before its term expired? He replied, ‘‘When Premier Sullivan was appointed Chief Justice, his resignation of the premiership invoived the resignation of the government. I was called to the Senate, which created a secund vacancy. Neil McLeod became premier of | the new government, which, of course, ! comprised the remaining members of the previous administration.” **Who’s Neil McLeod ?” ‘That question was asked by the Patriot, Hon. David Laird’s newspaper, many years ago, when—then only a young lawyer—he was appointed provincial secretary just pre- vious to a general election. The question was answered a few weeks later by the peo- ple of Charloitetown in the triumphant election of that gentleman. He has con- tinued to represent the Island metropolis ever since. He is not an orator in the pop- ular sense, but is regarded as one of the best lawyers and most level-headed men in the Island. While Mr. Sullivan's apppoint- ment as Chief Justice was almost univer- sally approved, his withdrawal from public life was genera!ly regretted. He was with- out exception the most successful political leader in the political History of Prince! Edward Island. He led his party to power on the collapse of the L. H. Davies govern- ment, andupon appealing to the people eleven years ago was sustained by a major- ; '2d, Melville Bradshaw; ity in the popular house of 26 to 4. His administration has been endorsed by the people at three general elections since then, and he retires from the leadership with a majority in the house of 19 to 11. **What are the issues in the present con- test ?” ‘The outs want to yet in.” **What are the chances ?” * Well, you know what Sir John says about such a question—there’s nothing more uncertain than a horse race and an election. But I] tell you frankly what the result will be: Mr. McLeod’s government will be sustained by a majority of 20 to 10.” ‘* What about the alleged scandal in the crown land office ?” ‘** The commissioner, Hou. Mr. Ferguson, discovered a defalcation in his department by the assistant commissioner and cashier. He reported the facts to the government, and with the government's approval made efforts to recoverthe money. He recovered $700, leaving $2,300 still due. The de- faulter is now dead. No shade of suspicion attaches to anyone but the late cashier. Mr. Ferguson is a very able man whom the opposition fear and dread) With the hope of destroying him, they raised a great hue and cry about this matter. Buta thorough investigation into all the facts completely exonerates Mr. Ferguson from any blame. The people are getting to thoroughly un- derstand this, and the persistent persecu- tion to which he has been subjected will prove a boomerang, and instead of injuring him will destroy his political opponents, He is being opposed by Mr, Peters, the leader of the opposition, but that gentleman will be buried under an adverse majority on election day. ** How were the crops /”’ **Qats and potatoes, our great staples, were away below the average. Owing to the inferior crop of potatoes, only 400 or 500 tons of saarch were manufactured last year. But the lobster fishery was better than for years, with better prices, while other fishing was fair. The island has long been noted for its thoroughbred stock, and great progress is still being made in that industry. It is probably the most profitable undertaking in which our people are en- gaged, and we are giving more attention to it than ever before. it is getting more profitable every year, because the best animals are always im demand at the high- est prices. Among recent importations oi thoroughbreds, Hon. James Clow, the next member for Murray Harbor—the district which se long honored me with its conti- dence, has imported two of the finest ani- mais ever brought to the Island. One is a heavy cart horse, the other a hackney.” —_—_~+-@ A Bic Expenprrure.—The Montreal city surveyors plan for improving the streets of that city, notoriously bad, con- templates an expenditure of $5,487,497 in four years, in permanent paving, using block stone for heavy traffi@ and on_ hills, | dect—am aw dy & why adpiwlt and wudd blucks Utherwise, Fy Tr ity, your associations have always been of the most agreeable character, and you have won golden opinions from all, Courteous and jaifable, yet unostentatious in the last degree, you have gained many friends who will, we are assured, join with us in wishing you every success in the laud of your adoption, We trust the All Seeing Eye may be over you for good, and that you may be spared to meet with us again in the near future.

Mr. Edmund Yates cables the following :— Occasions when the late Robert Browning permitted himself to break an established rule of abstinence from public speaking might probably be counted on your fingers. One Saturday afternoon, about twelve years ago, jhe was crossing Hyde Park, waiking home- ‘ward, and ateod for a few minutes listening to ‘an address from one of the pestilent atheistic lecturers in these parts. He waited till the ifellow had finished, and then sprang on the | Vacated chair, suying: “* Now, my friends, you have beard him; listen tome.” He beld the attention of his strange aucicnece for some ten minutes, a rapt oration flowing free, with such extraordinary effect that the populace turned upon orator No, | and literally chased him from the neighborhood of his exploits.
